Stargazing in Norfolk Coast AONB

The Norfolk coast is a fantastic region for stargazing with very low levels of light pollution, particularly towards the North and East.

The Norfolk Coast AONB is actively pursuing dark sky recognition from the International Dark-Sky Association and encourages Astro-tourism through their dark skies friendly scheme for accommodation providers.

Regular star camp events take place at Kelling Heath Holiday Park where astronomers travel from across the country to enjoy the dark skies above the region.
